WHAT WILL I BE DOING
In addition to teaching, you will be facilitating cross cultural exchange between your U.S. classroom and your home country. At least once a year, you will organize a day or activity that highlights your culture and allows for your U.S. students to have a dialogue (through virtual exchange or other means) with students in your home country. In addition, at least four (4) times a year, you will organize an activity for your classroom or school (or the community at large)designed to give an overview of the history, traditions, heritage, culture, economy, educational system and/or other attributes of your home country.
The Teacher Exchange Program enables international educators to utilize their knowledge to help build the critical and analytical skills of our children, and to personally showcase the value of cultural exchange.
You will be teaching full-time within the Montessori school system, working directly with young students, exchanging teaching methodologies with other teachers, and reporting to your supervisor-teacher and director.
